I know that you have already Googled this and are probably confused by the "reviews" and technical diatribes, in particular the "benchmarks" ?

The first thing to ask yourself is: "What am I going to use this box for?"

As an example my friend:

My wife recently got a cheap PC from her work (June 2006).............. Intel core DUO 2.66GHz......1GB DDR1.............SATA Drives (7200) etc............it is not as slick as this one I built in 2000 with a 2.01Ghz single core, 7200 IEDE (PATA) drives. The only real difference I can see is that this has a RADEON 9700 and hers has some Intel onboard video chipset..........the performance is better on my older machine for what I do.

EDIT:

dinowuff,

I would very much appreciate it if you saved your sarcasm and childish stupidity for your Tazz site.........................or have they gotten pissed of with you there too?

Ahhh come on he's alright. Besides, I've seen that link a hundred times here and would use it myself if I ever ran out of make up funny crap like that one time that guy was on here who wanted to "haxx0r" his friends Hotmail account because he had a bet or something, and the spelling looked like he'd puked the English language onto a keyboard and dry heaved the rest... I think I said something like "try http://www.EnglishForTheIncompetentM...ad/YesYou.html or something like that.
